This is the week where Pn Foziah shared some knowledge with us regarding to photo editing. It is fun to gain some new knowledge on photo editing because I love to edit pictures so much.

This week, Mdm. Foziah taught us new skill in using the technology. So, im really eager to learn this skill...

Mdm. Foziah showed us example of photos that had been edited. All the photos were so great and im really amazed to see them.There are so many that can be done to make the photo more attractive and beautiful. We can adjust the color and tone, crop something that we dont want in the photo, we can remove red-eye, resize the photo and the list go on. Interesting isn't it???? After that, Mdm. Foziah asked us to edit any photo using the adobe photoshop I know that there are still many things that I need to explore and learn in order to master this skill.



PHOTO EDITING

Photo editing can be describe as a process of altering or modifying images, whether the images are digital photograph, traditional analog photograph or illustrations. Traditional analog image editing also known as photo retouching. It usually using tools such as air brush or any traditional art medium to edit the illustrations.

There are many graphic software which listed in different group of usage such as vector graphic editors, raster graphics editors and 3D modelers. Those software are primary tools that a user able to manipulate, enhance or transform any images. There also many image editing software that used to render or create computer art from scratch.

Pn. Foziah shared with us on her collections of pictures regarding to photo editing which is for task 1. There are some aspects that we have to take into consideration in editing any photo. The aspects are :

-there must be message that lies behind any picture that we edited. It must be meaningful.

- Have a copyright, means our signature


There are also many purposes of editing the pictures. The purposes are:

1) It will make that pictures become more interesting after being edited

2) Able to create our own pictures so it will become our teaching aids later

3) Arouse pupil' attention when it being used in classroom

After that, we were asked to find a partner regarding on task 2 which is about E-book. Before we having some discussions with our partner, we have been told to follow some criteria as listed below:

1) that e-book must have pictures

2) It must have some animations

3) It also must includes some audios

4) There must be a storyboard of our E-book.

Throughout the module, I will be able to learn many new skills that related to the photo editing such as
